Bob-omb Battlefield: Difference between revisions

'''Bob-omb Battlefield''' is the first course. It can be accessed from the painting in the far-left room on the first floor of Princess Peach's castle. Being the first course of the game, the door leading to it does not require any Power Stars to be opened.

Bob-omb Battlefield has a total of 146 coins collectible without the aid of glitches, however only 141 coins can be collected with the first three stars selected. With the aid of glitches, the number of coins can be raised, namely by using the [[breaking-disappearing cork box glitch]] and [[cloning]]. Cloning can only get to so many coins, but the cork box glitch can be used to get infinite coins.

In the A Button Challenge, it takes no A Presses to collect all seven stars, though the Wing Cap, unlocked by pressing the switch in ''Tower of the Wing Cap'', is required to complete ''Mario Wings to the Sky''.

Scaling the mountain is easily done even without using the teleporters near the flowers or using the mountain warp. As the geometry of the course is mostly flat, there should be no difficulty even when climbing up the mountain. Simply scale the mountain and defeat King Bob-Omb without pressing A.  

Completing this star is not easy. Initially, pannenkoek ended up constructing a [[Goomba Bridge]] to get to the island and placing a Bowling Ball directly underneath the star. Grabbing a cork box, he went back up his Goomba Bridge and grabbed it as it turned fake to clone another Goomba. Finally, he released the Goomba by getting knocked back by the bowling ball and opened the star's item block using the said knockback, then the Goomba clone facilitated Mario to gain enough height to reach the star, as the star is 313 units above ground<ref>Star Heights: https://youtu.be/xE7hrQ8sHhU?t=2m34s</ref>.

Eventually, in 2017, pannenkoek used Shell Hyperspeed to complete the star by accumulating negative speed with the shell, reaching over -440 with which he went to the mountaintop, and launching towards the floating island. Mario then ground pounds the item block in midair to collect the star.

In the initial run, pannenkoek utilized the previously mentioned [[Goomba Bridge]], as seen in the previous star. After the seven other coins were easily collected, he constructed a Goomba Bridge towards the island.  

Eventually, in the second video, pannenkoek used Shell Hyperspeed to accumulate high negative speed with the shell and launches towards the floating island using the previously described method. The shell also has the benefit of speeding up the collection of the remaining coins.

Getting Behind the Gate is easy, but getting the star is not. First, pannenkoek did some manipulation to reliably get goomba [[Cloning|clones]]. Then, he went behind the gate using a cork box and used that same box to clone the Goombas in such a way that he could ascend to the star using a [[Goomba Staircase]].  

Eventually, in the second video, pannenkoek uses Shell Hyperspeed to accumulate higher than -500 speed to clip behind the gate with enough height to collect the star behind the gate.

This star requires getting all coins except the one red on the Floating Island and the coins in [[Mario Wings to the Sky]]. After collecting the easily accessible coins, pannenkoek [[Cloning|clones]] a singular yellow coin for the star. Even without cloning, the shiny shell (accessible from Star 3 onward) can also greatly facilitate in collecting the coins of the course and reach the floating island via [[Backwards Shell Hyperspeed]].

In a [[CCC Challenge]], ''Mario Wings to the Sky'' is the most challenging mission to complete, as it requires the use of [[Parallel Universe]]s for the first four secrets and a complicated setup to achieve a high [[VSC]] for the fifth secret (with cloning being an alternative)<ref>CCC: https://youtu.be/ucK9bqmgnJA, https://youtu.be/JUIGWVUXUhc</ref>.

In a No Buttons Allowed challenge, ''Find the 8 Red Coins'', ''Behind Chain Chomp's Gate'', and ''100 Coins'' can be collected using only the joystick and the C buttons (to turn the camera)<ref>No Buttons Allowed: https://youtu.be/voV_QgdLHiY, https://youtu.be/xOs72bQGadQ, https://youtu.be/aJV-yIGMK2A</ref>.

In a No Joystick Allowed challenge, ''Big Bob-omb on the Summit'' and ''Behind Chain Chomp's Gate'' can be collected without using the joystick<ref>No Joystick Allowed: https://youtu.be/BuDNiW72tFE, https://youtu.be/gAtIO1oER5Y</ref>.
